A Holiday show and a New Years Dinner (with fireworks)

Went to see the Cincinnati Shakespeare Company's production of "Every Christmas Story Ever Told (And Then Some!)" with several of the Bozinis. A very hilarious mashup of pop culture references and traditional Christmas stories. Alas, last night's performance was the last this season, but if you get a chance to see this show next Christmas season, I highly recommend it. Since the CSC doesn't allow photography during performances, I left my camera in the car, so I didn't get any photos. Pity. ;-)

After the show, it was down to 5th & Main to McCormick and Schmicks restaurant, where we were joined by several more of the Bozini clan, for a delicious dinner, as well as fireworks from Macy's roof across the street. I had the Lobster Bisque, followed by a Kobe Burger.

Fortunately, I did have my camera along for the dinner and fireworks, so just click here or on the image for more pics.

The 5th night of Kwanzaa was celebrated on Friday night at Gwen McFarlin's house in Springfield Township. A very fun and convivial evening, featuring some great food, including Gwen's chicken dish, a tasty string-bean dish and a delicious Brie pie. Many thanks to Gwen for her gracious hospitality, and to all who attended for the great food and company.

The second of two annual Bozini Christmas parties was held Saturday night, hosted by Nancy, Bob and Charles, with their usual uncommon flair. As usual, Her majesty Queen Victoria was especially pleased to welcome the Cincinnati Shakespeare Company (who arrived shortly after performing Love’s Labour’s Lost on their Main Stage downtown), along with several members of the area Opera community.

A most enjoyable evening was had by all. And I'm especially looking forward to attending the CSC's Every Christmas Story Ever Told (And Then Some!) on New Year's Eve! :-)

Waycross Community Media had its annual visit from Santa Claus this past Monday, where children from the Waycross area were able to call in and talk to the Jolly Old Guy himself. More pictures, as usual by clicking here or on the image. Merry Christmas to all!! :-)

The annual two-part Bozini Christmas Party got underway this year, with Part 1 being held last night at Casa Bozini. As is traditional, an appearance was made by HRH Queen Victoria, who was looking quite her usual regal self this year, followed by a rousing round of caroling. Also, much food was eaten, and a festive time was had by all. :-)

Updated a couple more and added a gallery from the holidays

I've updated my page to include a couple more galleries whose style I've upgraded (A Northwest football game, and Jazz in the Park 2010). I've also uploaded some pictures from a Kwanzaa party I went to back in December, that I never got around to uploading, probably because they were taken with a smartphone camera indoors with low light and didn't come out as well as I would have liked.
